The North Koreans want your gold! (the fake kind)

I saw this and it made me laugh to say the least...

According to the New York Times, Four South Koreans and a Korean-Chinese have been arrested for the plot, with charges that they organized a hacking squad of 30 video gaming experts in China, then flowed some of the money to North Korean organizers.

Maybe Kim Jong-il will use some of that money to finance his Hennessey addiction

Seriously! Kim Jong-Il used to import approximately $750,000 worth of Hennessey every year!

they made $6 million doing this in 2 years...and all us gamers always wondered why those gold sellers not speak a da good engrish...

It's such a common thing now that some MMO's actually make fun of them. In Age Of Conan, there's this dude (NPC quest giver) who wants to buy your gold. You sell it to him so he can go sell it to another guy for more money. When asked why he can get more for it than what it's worth, he says something about the other guy being lazy.

It's really like something right out of a Korean Monty Python sketch.
